Component body
Allows to configure node view page to redirected to HTTPS.
Valid Usecases
- Site with set of webform nodes in random URLs and some of the forms (that collects user sensitive details) should be served in HTTPS -
- Serve a basic page/ article with 3rd party content(which is served with HTTPS)
Configurations
- After enable the module, go to node type page and Check 'Enable HTTPS option' under 'HTTPS Node settings'
- Now node add & edit pages show 'HTTPS Settings' section
Requirements
Limitation & Alternative options
- If the all the nodes of same type need HTTPS (say all webforms) and are all under one path (e.g. under "/survey/*"), we can easily add the redirect in apache level(using .htaccess or httpd.conf file)
- It is not very efficient way of redirecting as this tries to load the whole page in http and do the same after redirect.
